| Tampa Audio Expo 2025 @skiznfliz @soundfield Thanks for the added info. I really thought the Soundfields were unobtanium speakers and am afraid didn't even ask what they cost! I really was impressed by his system especially now that I know his price for those line ... | |
| Tampa Audio Expo 2025 @doyle3433 I heard the Voltis. I think the room was too small to properly evaluate their sound. The build and finish quality is top notch. If you can audition them in a larger space ((greater than 350 sf), i think they would get a chance to ... | |
| Tampa Audio Expo 2025 @pete23 Agree the Mission 770 speakers did sound very good. The Acoras do sound very good. I heard them 2yrs ago at the Tampa Expo. The Borresen x3 sounded excellent for $11,000. | |
| Florida HiFi Expo 2025 @skiznfliz I attended as well. Loved the Soundfield line array speakers. I was afraid to ask what they cost for fear i would justify getting them. Also really loved the Soundfield speakers paired with the Orchard Audio equipment. The Audio mi... | |
| The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? 1978 The Warehouse in New Orleans. The Specials opened for The Police. We didn't know who they were at the time, but were absolutely blown away by their pure fun energy. They were actually swinging from the rafters in the venue. Everyone in our... | |
| MoFi or Harbeth (used) I recently got a pair of MOFI 10s new from The Music Room at a big discount. I heard them at the Tampa audio show 2 years ago and was very impressed. Andrew Jones was using the HiFi Rose 250 to drive them which i think is 200watts/channel. They ... | |
| Power Amplifier - Maximum Resolution & Detail! At the opposite end of the spectrum, I replaced my Dayton Audio APA 150 amp that was used to power my nearfield computer speakers with a new Parasound Zamp and have found the sound quality from the Dayton was night and day superior! The Dayton was... | |
| Speaker Slip Covers I found some garment bags on Amazon that were quite effective at protecting some Vandersteen 3a speakers and some Kef 105 speakers. Not very expensive, water resistant, and have zippers. | |
| Amplifier pairing for Altec Flamencos @kuribon Thanks for your input. I sold the speakers back to their former owner who I think regretted ever parting with them. I have rotated in some Heresy IV speakers that fit more comfortably in my space. I don’t think the Heresy’s are by any mea... | |
| Noir album recommendations You might like the Night Walks album by Hidden Orchestra or the Twin Peaks album by Angelo Badalamenti. | |
| need advice for new/used avr I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a half priced factory refurbished Denon AVR X2800H. It has a 1yr factory warranty and a 2 yr extended warranty- so hopefully anything that goes wrong will happen in that timeframe. | |
| need advice for new/used avr @soix @loomisjohnson , Thanks for the advice and for the referral to accesories4less.com | |
| The Hidden Gem at Capital Audio Fest (CAF) 2023! @bouncehit , I heard the Endow Audio speakers at the Tampa Audio Show in February and thought they sounded extremely good. I think they had the big ones playing though. They sounded so good that I did think hard about the smaller ones, but it wo... | |
| COINCIDENT FRANKENSTEIN 300B STEREO @charles1dad I have been considering whether to get the new Coincident Frankenstein 300B stereo amp or a used pair of older Coincident Frankenstein 300B monoblocks. Does anyone have an opinion on which ones would pair better with my vintage A... | |
| I feel it is time to upgrade my 1977 system....... I have Altec Flamencos and recently asked for some advice on amplifiers that you might find helpful. Coincident Frankensteins and Music Reference were recommended for my speakers as well. Also Atmasphere thought that his class d monoblock amps wor... |
